As I said last week, to celebrate my first blogiversary- there are some exciting things planned for this week. If you haven't already cast your vote in the Name That Cowl Contest, it's not too late. The winner will be revealed tomorrow and the pattern will be available for purchase soon after.
Today I have a very exciting giveaway for all of you. Alana from Never Not Knitting has sent 5 patterns my way to give away to my readers.
Alana has recently redone all her patterns so they look like a cohesive collection. The printed patterns are only available through yarn shops (you can find one in your area by clicking here), but all patterns are available as pdf downloads on nevernotknitting.com.
Each pattern is uniquely designed to look like a page from a scrapbook- just take a closer look at this beautiful design work:
Alana's patterns were some of the first I found (and fell in love with) when I got on Ravelry about a year ago. Playful Stripes is one I'm planning on making for my child one day and was ecstatic she sent an extra copy for me!
Not only is Alana a super talented designer, she is also the host of the ever-popular "Never Not Knitting" podcast. She just kicked off a new season last week, but you can catch up on all the episodes here.
In order to enter, stop by Alana's pattern store to find which design you would love to knit up. Come back and share your favorite design on this blog post for a chance to win. For an extra entry, you may tweet the following phrase from your twitter account:
